Oral Health Month

Brush 2 Win Contest

April is Oral Health Month! To celebrate Oral Health Month BCDA annually runs a brushing contest to encourage Kindergarten to Grade 3 students to brush their teeth morning and night. Each year, Parents, caregivers, and teachers can challenge children to make dental care part of their routine by brushing twice daily for a full month and tracking their progress on the printable calendar.

BCDA’s month-long contest promotes good dental health habits by:

  • teaching them about the importance of daily dental care,
  • challenging them to brush (and floss!) twice daily for a full month, and
  • tracking their progress on a printable Brush2Win calendar.

 

Brushing twice a day is a simple step to help keep teeth clean and healthy and avoid cavities.

  • Download and print a Brush2Win poster (PDF) for your classroom. (EnglishFrench)
